If you follow the link look for the big red + signs on the right side and read the request for help messages. If you have any info to contribute just click the red + and you will be taken to a form where many of the fields will already be filled out but you can also provide corrections and/or new information. I will also include the "Need Help" entries below. The goal of this exercise is to…
#1: I try to make the map links as accurate as possible. In other words I would like to see all map link accuracy indicators in the green.
#2: Improve the data for all locations.
Exact locations are preferred (but not necessary). If you know the exact location but don’t know how to get the coordinates you can get those from two sources. Source #1 is Google Earth…

Thanks in advance.
